Hey guys. I just wanted to share a video of Deb out picking peas. I’d just got up from my Saturday afternoon “power nap,” and Deb says…”Let’s go pick some Crowders.” I was like, “Yeah, right!”
Once I saw she was serious, I asked for her to wait until tomorrow and I’d help her. She told me she’d rather go ahead and get them, and then I suggested very strongly…okay, but don’t miss any! LOL!
That heifer grabbed 3 buckets, piled in the gator, and off she went. It was kinda funny once she got to the pea patch. The dern cows have been eating the pea hulls, and had already gotten the black-eyed pea bushes we’d pulled up and fed them.
With this being the case, when they saw the gator, then saw it headed to the garden, their first thought…FOOD! They went runnin over to the garden, and you ought to have seen ole Deb trying to open the gate, tote her buckets in, then get the gate shut back, all in the midst of some hungry cows, or at least they thought they were hungry, anyway.
When she came back in later, I told her the cows looked like a bunch of hungry construction workers trying to get to the “roach coach!” This being the term the construction workers on-site call the sandwich truck.
My reply didn’t humor her in the least, as it became clear to her that I’d been standing up at the house watching those cows just aggravatin the daylights out of her trying to get in the garden. It was obvious to me as soon as the words left me, that I’d just put my WHOLE foot in my mouth!
You’ve all heard the sayin before… “Boy, he’s got a BIG mouth?” Well, it originated by being a description of…moi!
No, no, Judi or Brian, I am NOT from Southern France, BUT…I did use to watch the Muppets! For all you “slow trails” out there, Miss Piggy used to use the word moi, when speaking of herself.
But back to Deb, let’s just say I was getting under her skin.
So, she emptied her three buckets, grabbed a couple more, and went back to finish the Crowders. I didn’t want to tick her off by putting my foot in my mouth again, so as she drove back to the garden I was “hand-signing” to her just as hard as I could. My remarks? D.O.N.’T. M.I.S.S. A.N.Y!

‘Ridin Out The Recession With Dub and Deb in “Miz Judi’s Kitchen’!
Note to Readers: There are a few things that Dub doesn’t know but one thing he does know is that the word ‘Riding’ (as in Riding Out the Recession) is spelled with a ‘g’ at the end. But Dub not only walks the walk, but speaks like he is: down home, true blue, and plain speakin’ country folk.
Dub and Deb are both native Floridians, live in Central Florida, and run a small business as well. They have five children, and seven grandchildren.
Both love to cook, love to laugh, grow a garden, and generally try to “aggravate” most anyone around them basically…all in good fun, of course!
